Hyper = blood sugar levels too high whereas hypo = blood sugar levels too low.

HYPERglycemia symptoms/signs include: Fruity-smelling breath. Nausea and vomiting. Shortness of breath. Dry mouth. Weakness. Confusion. Coma. Abdominal pain.
HYPOglycemia symptoms/signs include: Confusion, heart palpitations, shakiness, and anxiety.

Treatment for HYPERglycemia could look like insulin or diabetes medication.
Treatment for HYPOglycemia could look like diet modifications.
